My first time with a driving instructor in the car, the combination of being not at all smooth as a novice, the nicely bolstered BMW seats, and the phenomenal grip our cars get on RE71R's led to him getting motion sick, vomiting upon leaving the car, and joking about his wife thinking he'd gotten in a fight with how bruised up he was going to be. Fortunately, I got much smoother as the day went on, so his health wasn't at as much risk.
